Would love to see all the skating but the time difference makes it too hard so pairs i will skip. Perhaps S/Z are resting rather than doing an early morning pratice? Hope they are fine. My favourites in this event.

Me too, Olympia! How can THEY maintain their composure on a day like this? They've been so open about their single goal - nothing but gold for them. May the skate gods reward them for everything they've done for the sport! (Note to mods: we need a pleading icon and a praying hands icon!)

I have to remind myself they've done it all before - if anyone can handle this pressure they can.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO XUE AND HONGBO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!
